Join me #28daywelcomebackyourcycleawarenesschallenge
This 28 day challenge was born from a place of welcoming back the whole month of a woman's cycle. Often, it's just the time of menstruation that we give any consideration to our cycle. Our complete cycle is the inner compass to our bodies needs, and a guide to living a more balanced, meaningful connected life.
Day 20 - Summer {Ovulatory phase}
Moon 4.0% - in Libra
Luteal Stage
Oestrogen and Progesterone decrease
Expressive phase
As my egg was not fertilised, levels of estrogen and progesterone are decreasing. Without the high levels of hormones, my womb lining that has been built up starts to break down. This is the start of my next period and the beginning of my next menstrual cycle.

Breathwork to Energise and Power Up.
Instructions:
- Sit comfortably, just notice your breath. Breath normally in and out.
- Take a moment to tune into your daily power statement. {I am infinite power}. Turn that power statement into a mantra. Keep breathing.
- With that power statement firmly in your mind take short sharp breaths through the nose. Inhale - two breaths in, exhale - once out (all through the nose) ten times.
- Breathe in for 4, breathe out for 8, five times.
- Breath in and out with sigh .
This is a powerful breathing practice to do each morning, to start your day.
